Just thought I'd ask a question. I'm 6'2 and 205 pounds. So I'm tall but have a bit extra weight that i'd like to get rid of. I live in Canada so right now I cant really do much outside because it is too cold. So I'm basically limitied to what i can do in the gym. I know that cardio is what burns fat but how much? Is it a good idea to see a nutritionist? and are there any products that are ephedra free that will aid in the fat loss process? I appreciate anyones feed back.

Thanx

You'll never really be able to loose weight in the gym if you don't also follow a healthy diet.
Try doing some search in here for diets (lots of posts) and also take a look at FT's nutrition programs.

Losing fat is about diet, weight training and cardio. So look at and assess you eating, training then if needed add cardio. A good rule is to build up to 4 - 30min sessions over a period of time. If you are not losing and the diet is in line increase the cardio more (but only for the short term).
